Death OF an outlaw.

Santa Fs, March so.-It was re-
ported here last night that Marino teyba,
the notorious outlaw and desperate. and
leader Of gang who tee..11vrized Central
New Mexico Tor six months, had been killed
while resisting arrest, near Antelope
Springs, seventy miles south of here. The
report was confirmed to-day by the arrival
Of Joaquin M0nterea and Carlos Jaconie
with the body. They were deputised by
Sheriff Chavez, Of Santa Fe county to make
the arrest, and met Leyba on mountain
trail while on the lookout for him. When
ordered to surrender the outlaw pulled his
pistol and Monterea and Jacopie pulled
theirs. The three shots sounded like one.
MontereA got bullet through his hat Ley
ba fell dead at his feet, shot through the
head. .Leyba led the gang that murdered Col.
Charles Porter. step-son Of Governor Van
Zandt, of Rhode Island, in the Dolores
mountains in 1850, and buried the body af-
ter taking several hundred dollars from it.
Four OF the gang were Captured by Sheriff
Armi1o and taken to Albuquerque, where
.ney were lynched. Leyba, the fifth men,
Der, hid in the mountains, but came out
and began operations again after all the
witnesses were dead. He was afterwards
captured and convicted OF horse stealing
and sentenced to five years in the peniten-
tiaIy.
mediately returned to the fourishing min
ing country in the southern part of Santa
Fe county and reorgapised his gang. They
would shoot up the towns, steal horses,
rob travellers and their last outrage was the
murder and robbery of Lackey and Lessier,
near Antelope Springs. These two men
owned 10000 sheep down there. tackey
was killed In his house and his body burned
and Gessler was shot in the back while
running away. Two of the Leyba gang
were arrested for the murder and are now
held for trial.A reward of q, 200 was offered
for Leyba. His death will break up the
gang.
A great many people visited the Santa Fe
Jail to-day and viewed the body. The peo-
pie in Southern and Central New Mexico
are greatly pleased over the death of the
outlaw and are now thoroughly organized
for the suppression Of the rest of the bands.

Blaine. Western Trip.

NEW YORK, March 26.-The Tribune
tomorrow will say: The Western trip OF
James G. Blaine, on which he will start
Monday has been undertaken for recrea-
ton and business combined. Mr.. Blaine's
daughter, Mrs. lieutenant Colonel Coppin.
ger, who is with her husband at Fort Wich-
ita, Indian Territory, has been expecting a
visit from her father for some time. Blaine
is interested in two mines in Colorado and
desired to go to Denver on business con-
nected with the investments. He will stop
at St Louis for day on his way west
merely to rest, and then soon to Denver.
On his return from Fort Wichita he will
probably come back by way of Chicago and
rest there for day. The trip will occupy
about twenty days.
Blaine had host of callers yesterday. He
resolutely refused to talk politics with any
one and positively repelled every attempt
to engage him in conversation about 1888.
He will make no speeches while he is gone,
nor accept any receptions.

Dame Dignity.

A stately and fashionable dame. a
picture of luxurious elegance IN her
sumptuous furs and rustling silk and
beads. alighted from her carriage ut an
uptown store on Saturday and passed
through the swinging glass doors at the
busiest moment Of the day. The place
was ablase with color and light and
thronged with fair bargainers and their
happy children, who laughed and chat

in holiday glee. The newcomer. who
was apparently short sighted and un-
familiar with the store. adjusted her
heavy gold Eyeglasses and hooked

supercllious glance Of d sultanA
The crowd interfered with her pro

Stokes of Detroit.
Detroit Cdich) Tribune. Feb. n.
John w. d. Stokes in January sent
$2 to the New Orleans National Bank
for the purchase of a ticket in the
monthly drawing of the Louisiana
State Lottery. The money was de-
layed in reaching the bank, and was
invested in the February drawing,
which came off on the 9Th inst. Stokes
received his ticket, fifth of No. 49,
151, and when he learned that 1t called

prominent Detroit gambling
house. A few days later the
money arrived by express, prepaid. in
the form of ], 900 ten-dollar bills. They
were all new and crisp, and made a
pile nearly two feet high. The lucky
man deposited his little fortune among
a number of city banks, and is now en-
joying season Of rest. He is also
having his wife. who is nearly blind,
treated for her afiiction.
Stokes says he will never deal faro
again. He proposes to engage in
some legitimate business as soon as he
can find q suitable place to invest his
money. He is past middle age. and
has been professional card player
for twenty years. He says that friend

Bach's Lost Violin

sun, and the times were SLOW" Pass
ing one day On the cars from one town
to another, Bach fell asleep, and when
he awoke his beloved violin was gone
from his side. Valnly he searched the
cars for it, and questioned here and
there; it could not be found. His de-
spair was great, and small consolation
was offered him by the manager, who
could not realize an artists love for his
instrument of expression. Bach wept
and raved to no effect, and the next
station abandoned the company
and train and started back ON foot

Walking into music store, in his rags
and misery, lie asked the dealers to let
him take a violin, and, in jest, they
passed to the supposed vagabond toy
instrument valued at twenty-gve cents.
Gently lifting tile slender bow, he raised
the violin to his throat playing, oh so
softly, an air of his childhood-a sim
pie. touching piece, that brought tears
to the eyes of all who heard him. When
no had finished they gave him the vio-
lin and he went out again to his lonely
search. Some weeks afterwards two
artists-brothers-passing down one Of
the side streets of New Haven, halted
at the steps OF an underground saloon,
from whose interior came forth exquis-
ite strains of music. Surprised at this.
they entered the place. They sat en-
tranced for hours. listening to such vio-
lin music as only maestro could pro-
duce. They finally questioned the play
er, who was none other than Bach, re-
duced to this sad state. They soon sat
isfied themselves that he was genius
and gave him assistance to restore not
only reason but his fortunes. He was
introduced into the home circle Of Gov.
Ingersoll. and given opportunities to
show his skill. A famous belle Of the
city, inspired by his matchless playing,
gave benefit concert for him. and in
